Apologies for the double-post, but this is regarding Evangelion.
There were reports that disc 5, which cover the 2 movies, is missing the subtitles on one of the extras. In particular, the deleted live action scene. I've not long re-tested disc 5, and I can confirm that the subtitles are missing on the deleted scene on my copy.
Those who have ordered the GKIDS/Shout Factory release can apply for a replacement disc. Some people have already received theirs. If you ordered the Anime Limited release, you will have to wait until they do a replacement scheme of their own (they're currently closed for the Christmas/New Year period).
Sometimes, this all really feels like an argument for streaming. Error in the content? No worries, just change the file on a server.
Problem with a physical release? We have to wait for the problem to be assessed, logistics for disc replacement to be set up, the corrected discs to be printed, etc.
Feel like I'm getting too old to have to keep running the risk so often that supporting a physical release will require this runaround.
With streaming you don't even get any extras.
This issue is completely irrelevent for me though, as I have never watched any on-disc extras on any anime or live action release. I find no interest in them whatsoever. So if one of the extras for Eva is missing subtitles, I'd never realize it myself.
